520 _aThis book originated as notes used in teaching communications at a technical college in Sydney, Australia. At that time, textbooks written at this level were not available. As demand for this course grew, an Australian text was published. Soon afterward, this text, aimed primarily at American students, was published in the United States. The text is designed for communications students at the advanced level, and it presents information about the basic philosophies, processes, circuits, and other building blocks of communications systems. It is intended for use as text material, but for greatest effect it should be backed up by demonstrations and practical work in which students participate directly. In this edition of the text, chapter objectives have been added and student exercises increased in number to reinforce the theory in each chapter. Further, a new chapter on fiber optic theory has been added.
